Join Evoralis to develop enzymes for a circular plastic economy

Evoralis, a spin-out from the University of Cambridge, is on a mission to enable the textile industry to become truly sustainable and circular. We use an ultra-fast screening platform based on microfluidics to develop enzymes for breaking down mixed and blended textile fibres into their constituent building blocks to produce virgin-grade textile fibres.


Key responsibilities:

·      Play a pivotal role in our wet lab team

·      Design and develop microfluidic devices and technologies for ultrafast screening for plastic depolymerizing enzymes

·      Conduct experimental validation and iterative optimization of fluidic performance (e.g. droplet generation, flow control, sorting of droplets)

·      Lead efforts in microfluidic device fabrication and testing

·      Maintain microfluidic platform and bring innovative approaches for platform development

·      Analyze and interpret experimental data

·      Maintaining records of experimental work

 

Skills, qualifications and experience needed:

·      A Master's degree or PhD in Mechanical Engineering, Chemical Engineering, Biomedical Engineering, or related field with focus on microfluidics

·      Experience with the development and building of optical or optofluidic systems

·      Competence in programming for instrument control (e.g. LabVIEW)

·      Proficiency in CAD tools (e.g. AutoCAD) for microfluidic design

·      Experience with microfabrication techniques such as photolithography and PDMS molding

·      Hands-on experience in droplet microfluidics (desired)

 

Why Evoralis?:

·      Be part of the solution, making plastics and textiles truly sustainable and circular

·      Work on cutting-edge technologies with real-world impact

·      Be part of a pioneering team with experts in protein engineering, synthetic biology, polymer chemistry, and microfluidics.

·      We offer a full-time position based at the NIAB – Co-Labs by Journey in Cambridge.

 

Ready to make a tangible impact on the future of textiles and sustainability? To apply please send your application to by 5th June 2025. Let's make textiles truly circular together.

Biotech Jobs Salary Calculator 2025: Pinpoint Your True Worth in the UK Life‑Sciences Market

Why yesterday’s salary guide won’t cut it in today’s biotech landscape “Could I earn more elsewhere?” Every life‑sciences professional has whispered that question—perhaps after seeing a colleague jump to a new start‑up for a chunky raise, or hearing that a peer at a rival pharma company pocketed a surprise bonus. Yet finding a credible benchmark in biotechnology is harder than ever. The sector morphs daily: gene‑therapy breakthroughs spawn new manufacturing lines, government funds pour into north‑of‑England cell‑&‑gene hubs, & Covid‑era mRNA expertise now permeates vaccine, oncology, & even agritech pipelines. Pay bands move with each development; a salary survey printed last year is already a museum piece. To clear the fog, BiotechnologyJobs.co.uk has reverse‑engineered a straightforward, three‑factor formula that estimates an accurate 2025 salary for UK‑based biotech professionals in seconds. Feed in your role, your region, & your seniority, and you’ll have a solid figure to anchor your next pay review or job‑offer negotiation. This article spells out the formula, spotlights the forces driving wages upward, & lays out practical steps to boost your market value over the next 90 days.
